[Vision2020] light pollution, predators

[Pat Kraut]

And by the way...it was very dark when we turned off the lights inside. I
had to warn guests and there were some very funny incidents for those 'city
slickers'.

I  been charged by dogs and cats but the bears and such have all run from me
also...however there is more than enough stories about those who have been
attacked. I used to live on Moscow Mt and am fully aware of the predators.
We didn't have a 'yard' light and there was lots of nighttime activity.
Humans can cause a lot of trouble.

Pat,

A few years ago, a friend from church told me about
some wolves he saw out by his place in Genesee. My
experience living in Idaho, and living in the
country... the wild animals I have seen flee from me!
